Vitas is a very special artist, exactly as written in his website "the artist who you have been waiting for". He is very famous and early recognized with big talents in composing amazing songs, designing brilliant creative stage costumes, performing songs in unique style with great voice in both weird and enchanted vocal technique.

"Johnny" Cash (1932-2003) was an American singer-songwriter, guitarist, actor, and author, who was widely considered one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century and one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 90 million records worldwide. He died of complications from diabetes in 2003. It was suggested that Cash's health worsened due to a broken heart over his second wife's death. I never heard of the top 2 but neither could be more recognizable than Johnny Cash. He sang for nearly 50 years, dabbled in all genres of music at some point in his career.

I have no idea who Dimash Kudaibergen is at the top of the list. I think to be most recognizable people should know who it is and have heard them. To me the Man in Black is tops here.
Johnny Cash has one of the best singing voices I've ever heard, a great country-rock singer. One of the most recognizable voices ever.
